Hi, it seems that you want to read user & pass info from the MySQL DBMS.
Problem 1 seems to be permission issue, since it cannot write.
Problem 2 is misconfiguration related mysql with dovecot. SEE RED TEXT
because it is working, i have the following in "/etc/dovecot.conf" and 
"/etc/dovecot-sql.conf", that concern to authentication. Either you have 
not provided the full information or cross check your configuration. 
configuration is missing that i feel.

*## Authentication processes*

auth_username_chars = 
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890.-_@
auth default {
mechanisms = plain login

passdb sql {
         args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf
   }

userdb sql {
         args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf
}
*

" /etc/dovecot-sql.conf"*

driver = mysql
connect = host=localhost dbname=postfix user=postfix password=your_pass_word
default_pass_scheme = MD5
password_query = SELECT password FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u'
*user_query *= SELECT maildir, 125 AS uid, 125 AS gid, 
CONCAT('*:messages=10000:bytes=', quota) AS quota_rule FROM mailbox 
WHERE username = '%u' AND active = '1'
